I stumbled across an article I thought others might find interesting. Is is titled Marzano's Six Steps to Effective Vocabulary Instruction. The focus of the article is on helping students learn subject-specific academic vocabulary, but I think it illustrates techniques useful in broader contexts. I particularly like the way it highlights features of Visual Thesaurus, a product I have found to be very helpful to my own writing efforts.
